- "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will
make violent revolution inevitable."
-
- --- John F. Kennedy, 1962 White House speech (35th
president of the United States of America, 1961-1963)
-
-
- Every politician and pundit has tried to explain why
the Republicans lost big. They all are wrong. Now, for the first time,
hear the truth.
-
- How can all of them be wrong? Ever wonder why movie
critics promote dreary, boring movies filled with plot twists and convoluted
language, while regular guys like straightforward action flicks and the
average woman is drawn to heart-rending romantic dramas brim full of domestic
strife?
-
- Movie critics don't have lives, that's why. They spend
all their time watching movies and searching for deep meanings upon which
to comment. They are out of touch and incapable of wanting what the rest
of us want when we decide to watch a movie. Critics probably started out
okay, as pure fans, but a steady diet of anything will change one's taste
("refining it" is the way they would describe the process, of
course). Too close to the trees to see the forest, in other words.
-
- Even more out of touch are the movie studio bosses, who
fancy themselves as opinion molders, in any event, with their own expectations
shaped from wishful thinking born of the lust for money and power. They
should ask newspaper publishers and television network owners, hopelessly
out to lunch and claiming befuddlement at the rapid decline of their own
audiences, just how that attitude is working out for them!
-
- The same rationale applies to the radio/TV talking heads
now pontificating upon why the Republicans took a shellacking in the mid-term
elections. Pat Buchanan and others opine that Republicans lost because
their party lost touch with its core conservative values. Liberal commentators
consider it an awakening and revalidation of leftist thinking.
-
- Politicians seem the most out of touch with the message
delivered by America's electorate, with some considering it a mandate for
Clintonesque government and others a simple repudiation of war done wrong.
-
- Well, listen up, you morons, particularly those of you
in Congress, both coming and going, because I am going to tell you, in
plain language and without subtle innuendo, exactly what it is that voters
said this past week.
-
- None of you has a mandate for anything. Not one. Had
each elected position on last week's ballot carried an option marked "leave
this job vacant for the entire term," a much larger number of you
now would be seeking new employment than you possibly can imagine.
-
- Very few of you actually are wanted in your position.
You newly elected are there simply because we wanted to deliver a message
to all of you, not because you somehow are better in our eyes. Those of
you heading out the door are leaving for the same reason. Make no mistake
about this fact and get over yourselves. Are you listening, incoming House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi? Get over yourself and do it now. Our patience with
Congressional hubris and incompetence has grown exceedingly thin.
-
- Here's the message: We are fed up with your bullshit.
Let me repeat that in words of one syllable for those of you unaccustomed
to listening to your constituents: We are fed up with your bull shit.
Admit it - you know the truth when you hear it and this is truth at its
simplest and most fundamental level.
-
- This has nothing to do with being Democrat or Republican.
Neither do conservative nor liberal values figure into the equation.
You are not blameless simply because Bush has proven so frightfully bad
at being President. After all, you made possible every single thing that
he has done. You were our trump card - our safety net - and you let us
down!
-
- Above all, we are sick to death of being the World's
bad guys! We want America once again to be at the forefront of the good
guys. We don't need or want to run the world.
-
- You have proven yourselves incapable of running small
nations that America bombs back into the Stone Age on behalf of foreign
interests. You thereby have proven our own inability to select decent leadership
for ourselves. Why, you have proven incapable of putting your own political
party houses in order! Your individual records of corruption, fiscal mismanagement
and sexual misbehavior defy description and thus demonstrate your inability,
even, to run your own lives. It is folly to think you capable of running
the lives of others, let alone entire nations of people and, least of all,
the rest of us.
-
- We are through with tolerating the death of our children
in foreign lands for the benefit of special interests, particularly those
foreign to America. End that stupid war and do it NOW. Get our sons and
daughters back home in time for the holidays. Make no mistake about our
resolve in this regard, incidentally.
-
- We have had it with the sex scandals and stupid personal
behavior of every sort on the part of you clowns. That explains a good
deal of why we voted "yes" on Marriage initiatives everywhere
they appeared on the ballot. You are there to work on our behalf, not
to fornicate and not to molest our children!
-
- Corruption has to be reduced dramatically, if not eliminated
altogether. In particular, you had better stop lining your own pockets
with bribes and graft while voting yourselves princely wages and perquisites.
Thinking yourselves better than the rest of us is salt in the wound.
Even more particularly, you had best shut down the Israeli lobby and start
tending to traditionally American interests again. Otherwise, consider
what the view might be like while dangling from the end of a rope tied
to a lamp post.
-
- All of Bush's illegal Executive Orders and Signing Statements
are to be declared null and void.
-
- We want illegal immigration stopped. Now. In fact,
we want it reversed. No amnesty, no how, for nobody no more.
-
- The American police state must be dismantled immediately.
We are not the enemy. Try to use what you have created and you will learn
the real meaning of force. The Military Commissions Act, Warner Defense
Authorization Act, both Patriot Acts and all related limitations upon the
U.S. Constitution are to be rescinded. All prosecutions under these un-Constitutional
laws are to stop and all previous convictions are to be vacated with records
expunged. The Department of Homeland Security is to be disbanded. Michael
Chertoff is to be investigated and charged if shown to have acted beyond
his authority in any regard.
-
- You must stop spending our grandchildren's wealth. Already,
you have squandered that built up over generations by our forebears. We
realize it is too late to stop the economic freight train now bearing down
upon our children and ourselves, but you must stop this madness before
we become a nation of debt slaves in perpetuity.
-
- George Bush and Dick Cheney must be impeached, convicted
and removed from office. It is not enough to stop their mindless rampage
through domestic freedom and international orderliness via Congressional
gridlock. We require a symbolic cleansing. We must show the world and
our children that no American is above the law. Afterward, along with
their Neocon handlers, they are to be bound over for criminal trial for
the high crimes they have committed, particularly their war crimes against
all of humanity.
-
- The impending North American Union of the USA with Canada
and Mexico is to be repudiated.
-
- All financial market interference and manipulation must
stop now. Devalue the dollar to its true worth, vis-a-vis international
currencies and release all other countries from any requirement of using
the dollar as the world's reserve currency.
-
- Most important of the financial reforms, the Federal
Reserve Bank must be dismantled and its private, mostly foreign, owners
required to disgorge their ill-gotten gains. This can be accomplished
simply by printing a single Federal Reserve Note with the face value of
America's entire national debt plus the value of those foreigners' holdings
within America and handing it over to them in payment for their holdings
and satisfaction of the mind-boggling sums they claim to be owed. Yes,
it can be that easy.
-
- The international banking families who own the Federal
Reserve Bank created the problem of the incredible shrinking American dollar
to mask their own underlying theft of our wealth. Therefore, they cannot
complain if there is no inherent value to what they receive for their exceedingly
evil machinations of the past 90 years.
-
- There must be an orderly transition to a new American
dollar, limited in its growth by an external, non-manipulable standard.
Gold and silver traditionally have served this purpose, merely because
their extraction from the ground has matched, approximately, the general
increase in the world's population and productivity. This single, simple
expedient automatically will eliminate inflation for all time, together
with the related impoverishment that it brings to our parents and grandparents.
-
- That will do for starters. Accomplish these things and
we might just re-elect you next time around to work on an all-new to-do
list. Fail and we all fail, because - and make no mistake about this,
either - if we go down, we will take you with us ... and it won't be pretty.
I, for one, will spend my last pennies on a length of good, solid rope.
